How T map Parking
saw the light of day
It is not surprising that drivers go around in circles looking for a parking
space or wait in endless line to pay the parking fee. Your driving
will be more enjoyable if you have an assistant effective in not only
finding a parking space anytime anywhere in precise and fast manner,
but also reminding you of where car is parked. To solve such worries
of drivers, T map finally launched T map Parking on June 19 of 2019.
Key functions of T map Parking
# Simple search for parking lots
T map Parking makes sure smart parking offers innovative and considerate
convenience. Drivers can check the parking location around
the destination as well as the information of parking fee. Simple route
guidance synchronized with T map is available. When searching for a
parking lot, drivers can check the optimal parking if the date of parking
and length of service hours are additionally set.
# Intelligent automatic payment system
T map Parking calculates parking fee in proportion to length of service
hours and provides the information for drivers. This was thoughtfully
designed for drivers who worry about an exorbitant bill. If you register
payment information in the app, automatic payment of parking fee is
enabled. This will facilitate unimpeded passes like the wireless toll system
of the expressway (Hi-pass in Korea). This will definitely change
the history of parking payment systems, because there will be no need
to wait in line to pay the bill at the parking exit.
# Attractive discount benefits
When small parking fees are all added together, the total is not trivial
and it affects your monthly budget. With this in mind, an essential function
of T map Parking had to include the task of reducing parking fees.
It allows users to purchase an hourly ticket with discount of up to 80%,
and this may differ depending on parking lots. SK Telecom customers
can benefit from discount of 10% of the parking fee with their T membership
(once a day, max. 5,000 KRW, 5 times a month). Besides, by
purchasing "points," you can have additional point savings of 5%.
# Safe parking lot
What comes to your mind first when you hear the word "a parking lot"?
It is very probable that it reminds you of a dark underground parking
first. T map Parking is even considerate of safety of drivers by providing
the safest parking lots based on security design and direct management
of ADT Caps allowing 24-hour surveillance with a high-tech video
control system and infrastructure of immediate preparedness for rescue.
We are proud to say that this service will be of great help to parking
owners as well since it is able to secure safety of users of parking and
protect the parked vehicles at the same time. This service is available
only at some parking lots for the time being, but we plan to expand the
service coverage to create an environment where people can park even
late at night with an easy mind.
Future T map Parking
Parking places can be used in many other ways, beside parking cars,
and this leaves something to be desired. T map Parking is preparing
for a new future as a mobility hub that offers one-stop solution to all
services required for our daily life such as charging space for electric
vehicles, car wash, quick repair work for vehicles and unmanned parcel
storage.
